She’s hanging up her professional netball shoes just shy of 100 National League game caps (thanks to the resurgence of COVID-19 in Auckland).

What a same, she was such a talent but plagued by injuries. I remember watching a ANZ game, the Steel?, with her and Karaka in defence. They were on fire I think Gordy was the commentator and she said the future defence of the SF was on display.

Janine Southby was the Steel coach

She was a great player. It’s a shame injuries stopped her for playing for the Ferns longer.

Was so strong at Steel with Demelza Fellows and with Karaka.
